I did a dogpile search and there are a few of these.  Stanley has one that measures up to 40'.   Leica Disto has them from a max of 60M - 197ft ($229 list) to 200M - 656 ft($995 list)

Well I never thought about that use but one of those laser tape measures from any home improvement store would give you the footage and probably inches to a subject so you could set the distance to subject from the dial on the lens.

By coincidence a friend showed me his laser focus aid
Sunday.  It is a
green astronomy pointer that he says is useful for doing
dim interiors.
Got it from Amazon.  It is a passive device not a detector
or measuring
gadget. I'd like to see a measuring device that works
at larger
distances than 100' I need it to set footage scale for
camera with no
viewfinder.

this precise spot the
    
camera fires, but not if something dog height
        
walks through.  (I really
    
should use this thing more too!)
        
hmmn , this should be a very useful DIY for me... Is
      
there a possiblity of
    
having more info on this one ???
